The view from this property is wonderful. Joan’s hospitality is first rate and she was very helpful during our stay. The cottage is comfortable and provides all that is needed for a self catering stay. The location is convenient to many sites and things to do. We are from the US, so navigating the narrow lanes was new to us, but we enjoyed the experience.

Comfortable and cosy

Overall excellent. Comfortable and cosy. Fantastic views of Snowdon and LLanberis. Elderly and people of poor mobility might have difficulty in accessing steep stairs to bedroom. Access lane very narrow. Reversing needed if meeting oncoming traffic.

The cottage is located in a nice area overlooking the lake Llanberis. Unfortunately the GPS led us somewhere else so we had to call the owner, Joan. The cottage is spacious, well equipped, we found everything we needed. The owner was very kind, helpful, she waited us with mince pies for Christmas and with a nicely decorated home. We were extremely lucky with the weather so we did walks in and around. The only negative thing we have to mention is that the radiators didn’t warm up the rooms properly so we had to use a heater, also the WIFI worked only for 2 days so we used our mobile network. In general we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!☺️

Peacefully located and comfortable, clean annexe with superb views over Llanberis and surrounding Snowdonia mountains and a welcoming and friendly owner. I especially enjoyed the local walk from the property through Padarn country park to Dolbadarn castle and back through the fascinating mining history remains; plus the walk out at Newborough sands on Anglesey and the owner's superb homemade Bara Brith on arrival!

Just right for two, cosy with tremendous views. The owners had made sure that all precautions had been put in place re Coronavirus. A pleasure to use for a weeks break.

Christmas Get away

Both property and location were ideal for our requirement. the property was warm and cosy ,well laid out ,and very welcoming. This being the first time we have been away for Christmas ,we didn`t know what to expect, but the owners made it home from home, and decorated the place with Tree, and lovely home made decorations. The location is peaceful with amazing views, only five minutes from Llanberis ,and short journeys to Caernarfon etc . The owners were very welcoming and made us feel "at home", and we will hopefully being going again in the future ,to take in the surrounding walks.

Lovely property, very well equipped and comfortable. Fabulous views across Llanberis lake and cottage is in a beautiful peaceful location. Joan & Dennis were so welcoming and the Welsh cakes a thoughtful touch. Open staircase is very narrow so wouldn't recommend if you have any mobility issues .

Wonderful stay with gorgeous views!

Lovely cute little cottage, cosy and ideal for a couple to stay at & Joan was very friendly and accommodating! The cottage had everything it needed! The bed was very nice to sleep in and the blanket was very warm! It’s somewhere great to rest your head after a busy day of mountain climbing and great adventures! Very close to Snowdon so not a far drive to get to where you need to be! The views from the window were incredible and really gives you a sense of the true beauty of the area. There was plenty of information available at the cottage, such as leaflets/pamphlets and a folder containing information about the local area and popular trails if you’re not sure where to start. Would love to come and visit again!
